Gênesis 26
1 E havia fome na terra, além da primeira fome, que foi nos dias de Abrahão: por isso foi-se Isaac a Abimelech, rei dos philisteus, em Gerar.
There was a famine in the land, besides the first famine that was in the days of Abraham [Father of a multitude]. Isaac [Laughter] went to Abimelech [My father king] king of the Philistines [To roll in dust (As an insult)], to Gerar.
2 E appareceu-lhe o Senhor, e disse: Não desças ao Egypto; habita na terra que eu te disser:
Adonai appeared to him, and said, “Don’t go down into Egypt [Abode of slavery]. Live in the land I will tell you about.
3 Peregrina n'esta terra, e serei comtigo, e te abençoarei; porque a ti e á tua semente darei todas estas terras, e confirmarei o juramento que tenho jurado a Abrahão teu pae;
Live in this land, and I will be with you, and will bless you. For I will give to you, and to your offspring, all these lands, and I will establish the oath which I swore to Abraham [Father of a multitude] your father.
4 E multiplicarei a tua semente como as estrellas dos céus, e darei á tua semente todas estas terras; e em tua semente serão bemditas todas as nações da terra;
I will multiply your offspring as the stars of the sky, and will give all these lands to your offspring. By your seed, all the nations of the earth be blessed,
5 Porquanto Abrahão obedeceu á minha voz, e guardou o meu mandado, os meus preceitos, os meus estatutos, e as minhas leis.
because Abraham [Father of a multitude] sh'ma ·heard obeyed· my voice, and heeded what I told him to do— he followed my mitzvot ·instructions·, my regulations, and my torot ·teachings·.”
6 Assim habitou Isaac em Gerar.
Isaac [Laughter] lived in Gerar.
7 E perguntando-lhe os varões d'aquelle logar ácerca de sua mulher, disse: É minha irmã; porque temia de dizer: É minha mulher; para que porventura (dizia elle) me não matem os varões d'aquelle logar por amor de Rebecca; porque era formosa á vista.
The men of the place asked him about his wife. He said, “She is my sister,” for he was afraid to say, “My wife,” lest, he thought, “the men of the place might kill me for Rebekah [Securely bound], because she is beautiful to look at.”
8 E aconteceu que, como elle esteve ali muito tempo, Abimelech rei dos philisteus olhou por uma janella, e viu, e eis que Isaac estava brincando com Rebecca sua mulher.
When he had been there a long time, Abimelech [My father king] king of the Philistines [To roll in dust (As an insult)] looked out at a window, and saw, and, behold, Isaac [Laughter] was caressing Rebekah [Securely bound], his wife.
9 Então chamou Abimelech a Isaac, e disse: Eis que na verdade é tua mulher; como pois disseste: É minha irmã? E disse-lhe Isaac: Porque eu dizia: Para que eu porventura não morra por causa d'ella.
Abimelech [My father king] called Isaac [Laughter], and said, “Behold, surely she is your wife. Why did you say, ‘She is my sister?’” Isaac [Laughter] said to him, “Because I said, ‘Lest I die because of her.’”
10 E disse Abimelech: Que é isto que nos fizeste? Facilmente se teria deitado alguem d'este povo com a tua mulher, e tu terias trazido sobre nós um delicto.
Abimelech [My father king] said, “What is this you have done to us? One of the people might easily have lain with your wife, and you would have brought fault incurring guilt on us!”
11 E mandou Abimelech a todo o povo, dizendo: Qualquer que tocar a este varão ou a sua mulher, certamente morrerá.
Abimelech [My father king] enjoined all the people, saying, “He who touches this man or his wife will surely be put to death.”
12 E semeou Isaac n'aquella mesma terra, e achou n'aquelle mesmo anno cem medidas, porque o Senhor o abençoava.
Isaac [Laughter] sowed in that land, and reaped in the same year one hundred times what he planted. Adonai blessed him.
13 E engrandeceu-se o varão, e ia-se engrandecendo, até que se tornou mui grande;
The man grew great, and grew more and more until he became very great.
14 E tinha possessão d'ovelhas, e possessão de vaccas, e muita gente de serviço, de maneira que os philisteus o invejavam.
He had possessions of flocks, possessions of herds, and a great household. The Philistines [To roll in dust (As an insult)] envied him.
15 E todos os poços, que os servos de seu pae tinham cavado nos dias de seu pae Abrahão, os philisteus entulharam e encheram de terra.
Now all the wells which his father’s servants had dug in the days of Abraham [Father of a multitude] his father, the Philistines [To roll in dust (As an insult)] had stopped, and filled with earth.
16 Disse tambem Abimelech a Isaac: Aparta-te de nós; porque muito mais poderoso te tens feito do que nós.
Abimelech [My father king] said to Isaac [Laughter], “Go from us, for you are much mightier than we.”
17 Então Isaac foi-se d'ali e fez o seu assento no valle de Gerar, e habitou lá.
Isaac [Laughter] departed from there, encamped in the valley of Gerar, and lived there.
18 E tornou Isaac, e cavou os poços d'agua que cavaram nos dias de Abrahão seu pae, e que os philisteus taparam depois da morte de Abrahão, e chamou-os pelos nomes que os chamara seu pae.
Isaac [Laughter] dug again the wells of water, which they had dug in the days of Abraham [Father of a multitude] his father. For the Philistines [To roll in dust (As an insult)] had stopped them after the death of Abraham [Father of a multitude]. He called their names after the names by which his father had called them.
19 Cavaram pois os servos de Isaac n'aquelle valle, e acharam ali um poço d'aguas vivas.
Isaac [Laughter]’s servants dug in the valley, and found there a well of springing water.
20 E os pastores de Gerar porfiaram com os pastores de Isaac, dizendo. Esta agua é nossa. Por isso chamou o nome d'aquelle poço Esek, porque contenderam com elle.
The herdsmen of Gerar argued with Isaac [Laughter]’s herdsmen, saying, “The water is ours.” He called the name of the well Esek, because they contended with him.
21 Então cavaram outro poço, e tambem porfiaram sobre elle: por isso chamou o seu nome Sitnah.
They dug another well, and they argued over that, also. He called its name Sitnah.
22 E partiu d'ali, e cavou outro poço, e não porfiaram sobre elle: por isso chamou o seu nome Rehoboth, e disse: Porque agora nos alargou o Senhor, e crescemos n'esta terra.
He left that place, and dug another well. They didn’t argue over that one. He called it Rehoboth. He said, “For now Adonai has made room for us, and we will be fruitful in the land.”
23 Depois subiu d'ali a Berseba,
He went up from there to Be'er-Sheva [Well of Seven, Well of an Oath].
24 E appareceu-lhe o Senhor n'aquella mesma noite, e disse: Eu sou o Deus de Abrahão teu pae: não temas, porque eu sou comtigo, e abençoar-te-hei, e multiplicarei a tua semente por amor de Abrahão meu servo.
Adonai appeared to him the same night, and said, “I am the God of Abraham [Father of a multitude] your father. Don’t be afraid, for I am with you, and will bless you, and multiply your offspring for my servant Abraham [Father of a multitude]’s sake.”
25 Então edificou ali um altar, e invocou o nome do Senhor, e armou ali a sua tenda; e os servos de Isaac cavaram ali um poço.
He built an altar there, and called on Adonai’s name, and pitched his tent there. There Isaac [Laughter]’s servants dug a well.
26 E Abimelech veiu a elle de Gerar, com Ahuzzath seu amigo, e Phichol, principe do seu exercito.
Then Abimelech [My father king] went to him from Gerar, and Ahuzzath his friend, and Phicol the captain of his army.
27 E disse-lhes Isaac: Porque viestes a mim, pois que vós me aborreceis, e me enviastes de vós?
Isaac [Laughter] said to them, “Why have you come to me, since you hate me, and have sent me away from you?”
28 E elles disseram: Havemos visto, na verdade, que o Senhor é comtigo, pelo que dissemos: Haja agora juramento entre nós, entre nós e ti; e façamos concerto comtigo,
They said, “We saw plainly that Adonai was with you. We said, ‘Let there now be an oath between us, even between us and you, and let us make a covenant ·binding contract between two or more parties· with you,
29 Que nos não faças mal, como nós te não temos tocado, e como te fizemos sómente bem, e te deixámos ir em paz. Agora tu és o bemdito do Senhor
that you will do us no harm, as we have not touched you, and as we have done to you nothing but good, and have sent you away in peace.’ You are now the blessed of Adonai.”
30 Então lhes fez um banquete, e comeram e beberam;
He made them a feast, and they ate and drank.
31 E levantaram-se de madrugada, e juraram um ao outro; depois os despediu Isaac, e despediram-se d'elle em paz.
They rose up some time in the morning, and swore to one another. Isaac [Laughter] sent them away, and they departed from him in peace.
32 E aconteceu n'aquelle mesmo dia que vieram os servos de Isaac, e annunciaram-lhe ácerca do negocio do peço, que tinham cavado; e disseram-lhe: Temos achado agua.
The same day, Isaac [Laughter]’s servants came, and told him concerning the well which they had dug, and said to him, “We have found water.”
33 E chamou-o Seba: por isso é o nome d'aquella cidade Berseba até o dia de hoje.
He called it Shibah. Therefore the name of the city is Be'er-Sheva [Well of Seven, Well of an Oath] to this day.
34 Ora sendo Esaú da edade de quarenta annos, tomou por mulher a Judith, filha de Beeri, hetheo, e a Basmath filha de Elon, hetheo.
When Esau [Hairy] was forty years old, he took as wife Judith, the daughter of Beeri the Hittite [Descendant of Trembling fear], and Basemath, the daughter of Elon the Hittite [Descendant of Trembling fear].
35 E estas foram a Isaac e a Rebecca uma amargura de espirito.
They grieved Isaac [Laughter]’s and Rebekah [Securely bound]’s spirits.
